All green fees, membership programs fees, parameters, and program time frames shall be listed on the golf program's website and posted in each city golf course clubhouse on the effective date hereof.
1. Senior And Junior Green Fees: Time frames for senior and junior green fees will be determined by the head golf course professional at each city golf course and are listed in the Salt Lake City consolidated fee schedule. Time frames are subject to change. Senior green fees and junior green fees shall not be considered discounts for purposes of this section.
2. Grandfathered Senior Season Golf Passes: In 1997, the decision was made by the Salt Lake City golf division, with the approval of the city council, to phase out the senior season pass program and to effectively grandfather the senior season pass program for qualified senior season pass holders based on their continued participation. Senior season passes for calendar years subsequent to 1997 were available solely to those individuals who had purchased calendar 1997 senior season passes on or before June 30, 1997. No other senior season passes were issued after this date. Senior season pass holders were required to renew their passes annually in order to remain eligible for a senior season pass. Any senior season pass holder who failed to renew a senior season pass for any year would not be eligible for any further senior season pass. Grandfathered senior season golf passes may not be used Fridays through Sundays, on recognized holidays, or for group reservation play. The fees pertaining to the grandfathered senior season pass program are shown on the Salt Lake City consolidated fee schedule. Grandfathered senior season golf passes shall be considered discounts for purposes of this section.
